Such a pleasure to witness O'Hooley & Tidow's return to The Cellar on Saturday evening - an all round success with a good sized audience in - a lovely atmosphere - and two outstanding performers.
There were moments when the delicacy of Belinda's keyboard playing ushered in an aura of rapt marvel from the audience - and this was stroked to another level of pleasure by the velvet etched harmonic tapestry that she weaved with Heidi. Utterly delicious.
Too many highlights to mention but Two Mothers, Like Horses, Made In England and especially Beryl were the stand-out moments for me - cascading harmonies soaring to a crescendo against dramatically pulsating piano work in a tribute to the triumph against all the odds of cyclist Beryl Burton.
Joni Mitchell's 'The River' was meant to be the final song of the evening but a vibrant Cellar audience were having none of that and so two encores followed - the last delivered a cappella from the middle of an extremely appreciative crowd.

it was normal practice to use the main bands PA... ELO were dead snooty and refused meaning we had extra work.

The audience was there simply for ELOs 1st hit single and weren't very friendly... but thats how it goes.

After Gary's set we packed the van and went for a drink.. or rather I went for the drinks... pints of orange squash, bitter for zarra and draught guiness for the driver (me).

As ELO went on stage the mics failed, after resuming several amps failed including one side of the PA..... we were asked for the loan of kit but gave the reply they gave us an hour and a half earlier.

the audience didn't much like most of their set (just as they had ours) and the "hit" had to be played several times....

happy days

This was the first time I saw soft cell. I bunked off work in Leicester and caught the bus to derby with no idea how I was gonna get home and didn't care. I spent the day hanging around outside the assembly rooms and met both Marc and Dave. Even managed to get in backstage and pinched Marc's dressing room poster.

There is a great review and some images of this concert here: Gov't Mule
but it is in german language.
First ever Mule show in Germany. It was first scheduled for the tiny and sweaty Logo club but quickly moved to the larger Große Freiheit 36. But this was also sold out ... though ....

Two stages for this gig, local acts Razar and the Riptides played in the Cement Box a little theatre under the Refectory and the other National Acts played upstairs. For my money the local acts took the glory here as they both played storming sets. I didn't see James Griffin (ex The Agents "Suburbs Of The Heart") but the unsigned at the time Mental As Anything were scrappy but inspired at times. Dave Warner was, as he always was, and predictably produced a set of theatrical, overblown pub-rock which was good but nothing to write home about.
